Olympics. Anyone Notice?

I have been watching the Olympic games recently, like a lot of people. A great opening ceremony, I thought, and even enjoyed some of the first games they presented. And then it started... An event would begin and the commentators would have their say, then... Oh, wait, the Chinese are on the screen. I thought it was just a bit odd at first, but then it started happening more often. There would be some critical comment of a team in the sport, but when the Chinese were in the spotlight, on the screen, there were few, very few, critical remarks on their performance or comments about their off moments. So I kept watching the events unfurl. Great moments in sports... but then it kept on happening. The Chinese would be up on the screen in their event, and even though very evident that the performance was not perfect, there was not one mention of it by the commentators. Not one. I have to wonder... Are the networks censored? Did we (US Networks) agree not to be critical? Are we kissing China's a$$? I wonder who else is saying this. I have not heard this comment anywhere yet. Maybe I missed it. Am I imagining things? Please let me know...Is just being in China such a coup that the networks would do/say (or not say as the case may be) anything to piss them off. I am SO waiting to hear the first 'real' critical remarks of a Chinese team/member.
